Stomach Acid Remedies To Stop The Burn (And Fix The Problem)

[MirageR5]

If you have an under active stomach why do you get heartburn? I've been dealing with this for 4-5 months. The doctors have no remedies other than continue to take the medications. I've used AppleCiderVinegar and it really didn't do much for me. I mean, I didn't feel much one way or the other.

@MirageR5 heartburn with an underactive stomach is a reaction to the foods - meat, junk foods, etc. They create an acid reaction (heartburn) even though the HCl level of the stomach might be low in general. Those same foods cause the stomach acid levels to be low in the long run, so the two often go together. If it doesn't get better or worse with ACV, try aloe vera juice. It's very soothing, but doesn't interfere with your normal stomach process like medications will.

@healthyvegan Thanks for the info Heather! Would you recommend using actual HCL capsules?I've been using this George's Aloe Vera. It tastes like water! :D I love your videos. I would like to go totally vegan, but the acid reflux limits my food choices and I've been very lazy in terms of what I can eat vegan wise with this reflux.

[healthyvegan]

@MirageR5 you can try HCl capsules, but if you didn't notice anything at all with the ACV then it's probably not the issue for you. hm, if the aloe tastes like water it may not be too strong... there are a bunch of other suggestions in the article linked under the video, they might be helpful.

[VocaloidKikaito]

Guys The number 1 way to cure heartburn is to drink 1 OUNCE of apple cider vinegar, trust me it works 100%

Hi Heather, my husband was wondering with the acid test what should you feel if your stomach function is normal and healthy? Thanks.

[healthyvegan]

@foodpuppie if your stomach function is normal and healthy, you shouldn't take the acid test - only take it if you feel like your digestion isn't working well, if you get gas, if you feel bloated after eating, etc. With normal stomach function, you could feel either effect with the acid, depending on whether you're slightly high or low in stomach activity - but without symptoms before doing the test, you shouldn't use HCl for either one :)

[foodpuppie]

Hi Heather, my husband had a good question. With the acid test, what should you feel if your stomach function is normal and healthy? Thanks.

[foodpuppie]

I never knew there was a difference in over/underactive stomach. No wonder the advice is so often contradictory. Thank you for this, I've had stomach issues for a while now, and I have some apple cider vinegar in my pantry!

What the hell

That's a test you CANNOT pass. Either way your stomach is overactive or underactive

[healthyvegan]

@pomegranateish true - but you only take the test if you're having issues with digestion. The pass is if you have no need to take the test :)

Thanks for the informative video.

I typically drink green tea with my meals as I feel it helps calm down/relax my stomache. Is this a no-no?

[healthyvegan]

@RennicJ if you take small sips, should be fine - it's just a problem if you have big gulps, especially of ice-cold water/pop/juice

[jeshrio]

Thank you. I actually did it today, I was just really dihidrated but felt good.

[IRONTROZ]

Fantastic suggestions as always. Thanks

[jeshrio]

@withchildlikefaith: what exactly does liquid do when you eat your meal? And whens the right time to drink water?

[WithChildLikeFaith]

@jeshrio Imagine a pot on a stove with beans and no water. What happens? The beans burn. Now add the water...the beans cease to burn. A similar phenomenon happens in the stomach during digestion when we drink with our meals.

[WithChildLikeFaith]

@jeshrio After you complete your meal, you would be better off giving your stomach time to properly digest its load by waiting about an hour before drinking anything. Doing this also gives your body time to properly absorb nutrients.

[cosmeticcouturier]

I have an overactive stomach, and I loved this video. Thanks for your knowledge.

[WithChildLikeFaith]

Im glad you understand what drinking with your meals does! Many people give me weird looks when I say I do not drink with my meals and have really hard times comprehending how liquids arrest digestion. I also what at least 1 hr after my meals to drink anything to give my stomach time to do its job. You covered info that goes against the mainstream for sure. I mean, how many times have you heard people say "I need to wash this down" or a"I need something to drink" with their meals?

[whothehellgivesadamn]

@WithChildLikeFaith I MAY DISAGREE WITH YOU THERE...I'VE BEEN THROUGH THAT WHOLE DON'T DRINK WITH YOUR MEALS AND THE ANSWER ACTUALLY MAY BE DON'T FUSS OVER THE WHOLE THING...YOUR STOMACH MAY ACTUALLY WANT FLUIDS TO HELP IT DIGEST....SOME THINK THAT YOU SHOULD ONLY EAT MONO MEALS WHICH ARE WHOLE, MEANING NOT EVEN CUTTING A TOMATO AND MAKING A SALAD, JUST EATING ONE ITEM AT A TIME...AND THEY MAY BE RIGHT...BUT THE IDEA THERE IS TO NOT GET HUNG UP OR DISTRACTED BY ANY OF THIS...AND JUST RELAX

[PrincessPetunia]

If one were to do the vinegar or lemon test, would they take the tablespoon straight, or diluted, and if so, by how much?

Also, does cabbage juice smell as bad as I imagine it would? LOL

[healthyvegan]

@PrincessPetunia good question - take the tablespoon straight. I haven't made cabbage juice myself, so I can't tell you, but my imagination isn't too keen either ;)

[whothehellgivesadamn]

I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT ANY OF THAT, OTHER THAN TO MERELY AVOID EXTREMES LIKE TOO MUCH OF THIS OR THAT. MY GUESS IS THAT THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THAT PEOPLE SUFFER FROM STRESS AND IGNORANCE AND THEIR DIET GETS OUT OF BALANCE...BUT WHAT AN EXTREMELY COMPLICATED ORGANIZATION OF EVENTS THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM IS ANYWAY.WHICH IS CONSTANTLY UNDER ALL KINDS OF ATTACKS FROM OVERLY PROCESSED FOODS, BAD DIETS AND EVEN SEEDS WITH NATURAL ENZYME INHIBITORS IN THEM, ALL OF WHICH CAN BE REASON FOR LIGHT COOKING.

[Athenav1]

Over active.
